    My youngest son dates a young woman who's mother runs a "turtle rescue" in Connecticut. When he told us the story, my first thought was, "turtles can live a lot longer than humans - doe she have a successor or perpetuation plan for the care of these disabled turtles."

    WBB: 2023-24 Former Cyclones Now at Other Schools Tracker

    MEM and Montana lose at their arch-rivals, Montana State, in a game closer than the final score would indicate. MEM was 3-9 from the floor, 2-5 from 3 and 1-2 from the foul line for 9 points, with 2 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 turnovers. Montana was down 58-55 and shot a 3 to tie with around 20...

    As I wander around this morning, I want to convince myself the Packers can compete in this game. Then I keep coming back to Christian McCaffrey coming out of the backfield versus Quay Walker or De'Vondre Campbell. If not CMC, then George Kittle up the seam versus those two jokers. Have we had...

    I’m old so games and seasons flow together to me. A quick look indicates Purdy threw 3 fourth quarter picks in a close loss to Oklahoma State in 2019. Thanks for keeping me honest! Go Pack Go!

    I hope I’m wrong but my gut tells me this is the end of the line for this season’s Packers. Having said that, nobody knows what Purdy is capable of better than Cyclone fans. If he has one of his head up his @ss days like Senior season EIU or OSU, the Packers can prevail. I’ll be relaxed...

    Twister Sister Summary - that sound wasn't a toilet flushing...it was Tech threes

    Interesting take - I had a conflict and didn't see it live - I pulled it up last night and let it run while I was doing other things, so I wasn't paying "close" attention. I thought Emily was frequently out of position, late arriving and wasn't she the one who fouled the three-point shooter for...

    Twister Sister Summary - that sound wasn't a toilet flushing...it was Tech threes

    I had a conflict and missed this one - had planned to watch it upon arriving home, but it sounds like I should just save myself the aggravation and do something else. Thanks for the write-up Mac...

    Twister Sister Summary - When the going gets tough, we get tougher.

    I was speaking with a fan yesterday who told me Kelsey Joens was +15 in her time on the court despite only scoring three points against Baylor. I don’t doubt it but haven’t found any stats or box scores which include +\- statistics. Does anybody know where you’d find this statistic?

    Youngest team in NFL to win a playoff game since the NFC / AFC merger in 1970, with the third most "dead money" in the league. That's quite an accomplishment! Interestingly, the two teams with more dead money that the Packers also made the playoffs, namely the Bucs and Rams.

    One of my adult sons called to talk about the game last night and brought up a good point - this late season run and playoff victory simply can't give LaFleur the idea to retain Joe Barry as Defensive Coordinator - he has to be fired! We have too many FIRST ROUND draft picks on the defensive...

    He’s an angry Cowboy fan - somebody showed his profile, which he’s since edited - changed his profession from mortgage loans to sales, but left the Cowboys as his NFL team.

    This is reminding me of 2010 when the young injury-riddled Packers won three road games as a six seed behind a second-year starter in Aaron Rodgers. First year starter Love has been better than Rodgers at the same time, so look out world. P.S. In your face Rodgers - the Packers are better...

    I promised I wouldn’t “dumb” posts but you’re testing my patience. What a load of crap! No need to rain on our parade - you could at least have waited until tomorrow! If you paid attention, you would know the Packers beat the Cowboys lat season, and including today, have won 10 of 11 in the...

    Twister Sister Summary - When the going gets tough, we get tougher.

    I re-watched the last four minutes this morning and you've been quite kind - Emily Ryan was terrible in that span. Everybody, even two-time all conference players, can learn - she needs to watch tape, adapt and make smart plays.

    **** WBB: ISU vs #4 Baylor Saturday 12 pm ESPN+ GAME THREAD ****

    I have done well predicting upsets, margins and final scores for the WVU and Baylor games. My comments are on page one of both game threads - I should have opened an on-line gambling account as I'm on fire! The young women have won me over and I believe! On the flip side, my prediction of 17...

    WBB: General All-NCAA Thread - Not Team Cyclones Stuff

    For the record, KSU actually defeated Iowa in Carver Hawkeye. I was present and it was awesome. I know I shouldn't, but I like this K State squad and I have since the "core" were freshmen, namely Serena Sundell and the Glenn twins. I don't know how anybody could dislike Ayoka Lee! I'll set...

    Hannah is from Wisconsin so she’s probably a Packer fan, plus she’s scored over 2000 points in her career. Therefore: The expression “Act Like You've Been There Before” comes from the famous football coach Vince Lombardi. Legend has it he first said that in 1967 to kick returner, Travis...
